New Golf Ball Won’t Slice
May 9 2011 in News by thestarter
From the New York Times, A Golf Ball That Won’t Slice Comes With a Catch: It’s Illegal: A golf ball that won’t slice? It sounds like an old joke: guy invents a ball that won’t sink in water hazards, then loses it in the woods. It sounds too good to be true, sacrilege to the golf ethos of eternal struggle…. The Polara ball has an irregular dimple pattern that means it does not conform to golf’s official rules. The ball, which is designed to reduce slices and hooks by 75 percent or more, would be illegal to use in the Masters, for example, or any other competition, local or otherwise, sanctioned by the United States Golf Association.
Would you play with this ball?
